Find out what your peers are saying about UiPath, Microsoft, Automation Anywhere and others in Robotic Process Automation (RPA)."It's very easy to use. That's a big selling point for it. It has got a drag-and-drop interface, so you can quickly deploy bots."
"I like the interface; it makes managing automation easy. We can set different schedules and templates for each task."
"I find it very user-friendly. Our IT department and other departments can seamlessly collaborate without requiring extensive training. As a business department, we particularly value this aspect, as our team doesn't consist of many IT users. However, we couldn't solely rely on a drag-and-drop approach to implement and utilize the solution within our departments."
"The licensing of the product is very good. You only need to license it once and then you have it forever."
"The pricing is excellent. I would give them perfect marks in that regard."
"The ability to connect to websites and pull data is the solution's most valuable feature."
"We have found the pricing to be very reasonable."
"A great feature that you seldom see in these kind of systems is the ability to use a database as trigger to launch a task. This is something I asked for a few years ago and that was added."
"TIBCO has its own integration tool."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its ability to do centralized administration."
"They have great multi-factor authentication for extra security."
"The technical support could be better. We suffer from language barriers, as we are in Argentina."
"The documentation is not that great."
"I would like to see some better web automation, a wizard like the one in the product WinAutomation would be very nice."
"The solution has a very weak knowledge base."
"They do not encrypt passwords, so this is an issue with HIPAA compliance."
"There is room for improvement regarding cloud functionality; there are a few missing features, and the logging could be better, especially air logging. We can go into logging events and create our own task, but it would be nice if this were more detailed."
"The workflow for variables could be better. The input and output of task-level variables could be made a little clearer in terms of passing those around from one task to another upon success, etc. Things like that could be a little easier potentially."
"The intelligent automation feature could be improved. It's interesting because it's simple, but the automation quality isn't always good. It's easy to use, but sometimes you need to make a slight improvement to the automation, and that's not so easy."
"Their cloud product is not yet stable."
"The UI could be better."
"I think some of the automated deployment features could use some assistance, which is an area where it currently lacks. The product needs some ability to help it with the deployment model, which is a little difficult."
